Vernon Davis, tight end for the San Francisco 49ers, knows how to move the ball down the field, by any means necessary. Even if that means jumping, or leaping over defenders who get in his way.

He did it two weeks ago against the New Orleans Saints, and he did it against today against the St. Louis Rams.

The 49ers are currently ahead in this NFC West showdown against the Rams, 6-0. But both teams have the capability to have huge performances at any given moment, we’ve seen that numerous times this season.

With Vernon Davis on the field, Colin Kaepernick is a much better QB, as the stats have shown over the past 12 weeks. That trend will likely continue with plays like this from Davis.

What do you think the outcome of the game will be? Will the 49ers walk away with a victory, or will the Rams get the win for themselves? Leave a comment below.
